After creating my web site, posting my products on Ebay and on Handango for sale, I have had few sales. Where else can I list my products? What can I do next with an extremely limited budget?

What are your products? Provide some links so we can see them.

Who should buy your product?  What is your value proposition?  What do you offer that others do not?  You need to get the product in front of your target market.  Get feedback from them and revisit your business plan. 

Maybe go after the "home school" segment?  Just a thought.  Schools probably have similar programs already.

It`s not enough to make the products available you need to make people aware they are there, this is where SEO comes in.

You don`t need to be a guru to make a good impact, just have a look on google for some info on getting started with SEO.

Good luck.

Hi!

To increase sales, you may want to look into producing a blog and send a regular ezine or newsletter to your current list of clients (with their permission).

You may also want to network at appropriate events, provide a free white paper for customers about your product and create grassroots promotional efforts to get the word out about your new product.

You can get some publicity on a low budget, it just takes some extra time and effort.

My products are software for the computer (Windows, Linux and Mac), and for the PocketPC and PalmOS. The Mac, Linux, and PalmOS products are still in development.
